I think the problem is the post a reply page has a html bug thats upsetting IE. Its a bad address in the post detail of the form, and when you click the Preview or Post button, IE wont process the page because it considers the post to address invalid. With something like 50% of users using IE, its something the forum admins will have to sort out soon I think.
Firefox works OK, its ignoring the bad HTML.

I don't think it's JUST the browsers.[ Parent ]
Here at home I use Firefox and it works OK.
I do get the "upgrading" message quite often regardless of which browser I'm using.
Any how..I hope you guys can sort it out. It won't stop me from visiting the board though...

No way. really? Like when the posts that say "THE FORUM IS BROKEN " approach 50% of the actual content, you think that it's not just the browsers huh?
You know what's really discouraging? When I see forum members bust their arse to help fixing the thing, and they get shown the hand and a "maybe later" attitude.
I guess the Admin are doing their best, but when you're driving down the road with a blown-out head gasket, a transmission that wont shift into second or fourth gear, a busted windshield, and four bald tires, maybe its time to quit patching up the old Scoop car and get into something a little newer and a little more reliable.. Especially when there are scores of people depending on you.
